BubblesitterParticipant
At the time the stimulus was initally debated over year and half ago, nearly every economist supported some sort of large stimulus. Fiscal restraint during severe recession just prolongs recession. You can debate if all those “shovel ready” projects really shortened the recession or not. I guess no way to ever tell. By they way we are officially out of a recession, even though it doesn’t feel like it with the high unemployment. Unfortunately I bet we’re gonna double dip recession soon.

BubblesitterParticipantResurrecting an old thread. My level of risk aversion is again reaching relatively high level. The Europe sovereign debt problem that is likely expanding has me a bit spooked. The Chinese property market is in serious bubble territory. Endless large deficits for years as partisan deadlocked congress won’t address near term or long term structural reform
Stocks been reaching good levels recently, perhaps time for another big pullback?

BubblesitterParticipantI’m increasingly being convinced that there is now a higher probability (although still low…say 10%) of a “world turned upside down” scenario occuring’.
I think it may be manifested in a sovereign debt problem that expands beyond Greece and Ireland into Portugal, Spain, Italy and beyond. US may take some temporary benefit as safe haven investment, but with 70% of US debt maturing in 5 years or less, , we will be a world of hurt it yields need to go up.
Deadlocked, partisan congress will not tackle any near term or long term structural reform.
I’m trying to provide some protection of my hard earned assets in event of this increasingly likely “black swan” event.
